News: Feb 26, 2025 Show

Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.

Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.

Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

(hope "Art Talk" is correct category for this)(if not, I can move)

It seems to be a good time to archive art (archive with Wayback Machine) at DeviantArt (that hasn't already been archived by Wayback Machine)
before someone notices an artwork has mature-or-whatever content and gets it hidden behind a
"This deviation has been labeled as containing themes not suitable for all deviants. Login to view".

WARNING: one BULGE art. Two BONDAGE artworks.

example #1: "Deer!" (title)

edit: Wayback machine at https://web.archive.org/
e621 forum thread about archiving at https://e621.net/forum_topics/31378
(short version of thread:
1) be patient.
2) Check live version of URL to make sure it is available (ie. online), perhaps with your browser's "private window" feature (or Incognito or whatever is named in your browser).
3) After Wayback Machine gives you success message, suggest wait at least 30seconds and look at archive version (it might need more time for archive version to be viewable).
4) Archive only one image URL per minute. For webpage URL, suggest waiting at least 2 minutes after you archived previous URL.

They're censoring bulges? You know, the thing you see on fully clothed male humans in real life? My goodness.

I wouldn't bother with archiving the aforementioned examples (and artist for that matter) since they are all AI generated.

If you want to keep them up, you could upload them to e6ai.net.
